Well, dang. Equal time for OUR side. And no, I don't mean missing from your I.Q. :lol:

Me: 1st segment of the first two fingers, left hand.

I haven't decided if circumcision counts yet. I think not.

Years ago my brother stuck his finger in a car fan. It was a '67 Ford
Galaxy hardtop, as I recall. He was exempt from the draft after that.

Matched set of automotive vee belts. But this isn't about me. I want to hear from the others.

Oh--the Ford was kind of a lime green with a black painted top.
Very pretty car.

No worse than, say, having a post deleted. But what REALLY sucked is that on the half- hour ambulance ride, they refused to give me any pain meds! I have abnormally low blood pressure. They took my BP and it was like 95 over 70 or some shit and they were afraid I was in shock. Well, heck yeah! Five minutes ago I had fingers, now part of my hand looks like a damn skeleton. I think that's pretty shocking.

The actual event wasn't as traumatic or discouraging as the surgery and year of getting the hang of working again without what used to be there. Seriously.

Not missing any, but two bent ones on each hand (three from softball, one from basketball). That leaves six straight ones.

It sounds like a horrible experience.
Do people ever laugh at your disability??

I tried to grind the three middle fingers on my left hand down with a dado cutter a few years ago.

Wish I had pictures.

Not if they're within reach.

Tip of my little toe from the nail up, right foot. Does that count?
:o
In 6th grade I caught the edge of a old fashion metal sprinkler head while riding my bike. Right through the shoe and sock. Had to ride 1 mile home and wait an hour for Mom to get home from work. Went to the hospital where they sewed it back on.
